Hi!
I tried the vanilla 2.6.39 today, but it doesnt even boot. The last
lines I see are:
Refined TSC clocksource calibration: 3210.779 MHz.
Switching to clocksource tsc
After that nothing more happens. After a minute I rebooted into a 2.6.38
kernel, it worked:
$ dmesg | grep clocksource
Switching to clocksource hpet
Refined TSC clocksource calibration: 3210.778 MHz.
Switching to clocksource tsc
Issue known? Any patch/workaround? How could I help?
Markus
PS: Please CC me.

Please send /proc/cpuinfo, .config and dmesg of the successful boot.
Thanks.

Could you send me your .config file.
As this weekend (and Monday) is a holiday in the US, I'll probably not
look at it till Tuesday.

That is the only way to communicate on LKML, as no one actually reads
all the emails (well almost no one). It generates 600 messages a day.

Hi!
The current running gentoo kernel is configured as the 2.6.38, just with
some patches (fbcondecor und ck1). Thats where the dmesg and cpuinfo is
from. (if its needed from a vanilla 2.6.38.7, please let me know) Its
cut where only usb/md stuff is printed...

Ok, let's try the usual suspects:
Can you apply
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-tip.git;a=commitdiff;h=e9cdd343a5e42c43bcda01e609fa23089e026470
ontop of 2.6.39 and retest?
Also, when it hangs, does pressing a button on the keyboard wake the
machine up and continue booting?
Thanks.

I have the same problem with hang on boot with 2.6.39. It hangs at the same
point with the same message.
The problem seems to be fbcondecor. Recompile your initrd without fbcondecor
and all works well, of course without a pretty background.
After boot-up splash_manager -c set can set up a pretty background, but
splash_manager -c switch produces a dysfunctional initrd.
